Also, our board is looking for new board members, so if you are interested in representing your fellow PhDs, improve your network and learn new skills, read below to find out more!

22.09.2022 - Multi-PhD association tri-city Round Table Discussions: Neurodiversity in the Workplace
Together with Young Medical Delta, Promeras, and Young Delft, we want to bring to you a discussion series on how to better create an environment of inclusivity in the workplace for the spectrum of neurodivergence when creating medical technology innovations. When talking about diversity, sometimes the topic of neurodiversity is overlooked. But many people struggle on the spectrum and, in order to create a better working environment, we need to begin a conversation. In each city of the PhD associations, Delft, Rotterdam and Leiden, we will have speakers explain about a certain topic relating to neurodivergence. 

The first round table will take place in Rotterdam at Erasmus Medical Centre where we will introduce a general overview of the neurodivergence spectrum and a doctor, who specifically supports autistic patients, will present their experience.

If you are intrigued or do not know the answer to these questions, come to our '3 Oktober event' on September 29 to experience an evening full of fun and get the answer to all of the questions above.
